addition to the three tried last week.
These were compromised Tuesday ON
plea of guilty, the fine to be fixed
at $50 in four cases and the other
three dismissed. When the agree
ment was reduced to writing the
compromise fell through and on We'd
nesday the same cases were tried be-
fore the court, without jury. Proof
was heard and the conrt without
hearing arguments rendered judg-
ment in accordance with the original
agreement, viz: 5000 and costs in the
seven cases combined.

anoe.

The rear end of the old ten pin al
ley on West Seventh street, used BY
Holt IL Stiih as a store room in con
nection with their feed store adjoin-
Ing, was discovered tobe onfire at III %!
o'clock Tuesday night. The alarm
was given but the fire company was
unable to get to work until a two
story brick building on each side had
been destroyed. The flames were
kept from spreading any further, the
New Era office and the McCamy,
Bonte& Co. carriage shop being dan
gerously close to the buildings
burned. The first building on the
east was tho old two story structure
formerly occupied by the post-ofiice.
1t was used by Holt Il Stith as a gro
Gerry store and supply house. These
gentlemen saved but 4 small part of
their grocery stock and that saved
was in badly damaged condition.
City Attorney Harry Ferguson had
his law Office aud bed room up stairs
and he failed to save anything what
ever excepting suit of clothes which
he only had time to don and make
his escape. lie did not even have
time to put on his shirt or socks.
Messrs. Holt & Stith, as above stated,
also occupied the ten pin alley which
was long building Of corrugated
iron, extending probably 100 feet to
the rear and wcdged in between the
brick buildings. This was filled with
corn, hay, oats, ETC, aud the fire was
started In the extreme rear portion.
The building TO the west was occu-
pied by colored people. On the first
floor Octavius Woosley and Alex
Smith had q kind restaurant with
a suspicious attachment in the shed
room to tho rear. Up stairs Joe Earl
had his dyeing and clothes renova-
ting establishment. This building
was entirely destroyed, even to the
walls which fell the next day. 1t
was on tho corner of 7th and Wa
ter street, directly opposite the ice
factory and was one of the old land
marks Of the town.
THE LOSSES.
As near as could be ascertained the
losses were about as follows:
Old post-oflce building owned by
c. p. Nolan $500, insurance $1,000.
Ten pin alley owned by Miss e. b.
Perry $3.50, no insurance.
Corner building owned by E. G.
Calls, II. L. Holt, A. r. Perkins,
Willis Wood and C. P. Nolan, about
81 200, insurance 81, 300. Holt Il Stith
grocery stock 81, 100, insurance 81, 900,
some salvage; feed stock 5000, insur-
ance $500. Harry Ferguson $500. no
Woosley 81 Smith $50 and Joe
Earl $50, with no insurance.
The losses according to these esti-
mates, which have been carefully |
made, amount to $3.50, covered by |
to the amount of 81, 100.
All of tho insurance losses are in the
of Calls & Co. The orr
gin of the fire is mysterious and every |
Indication is that it was the work of
IN incendiary.

The Water Works.

The Superintendent of Water Works is
having new main, six inches in diameter
laid down or Maunakea street to the harboi
front. Flush gates are to be put in at the
terminus for the purpose OF periodical clean
ing out of the pipe. Care is being exercised
to have an even gradient, so as to leave nc
depressions for catching sediment. The
old line was laid very badly in that respect
as anybody can see since its exposure. Mr..
Wilson has taken the opportunity of the
ground being opened at the intersection OF
King street, to insert permanent twelve inch
main connections in the latter street at that
point. A series of tapering joints connects
the fixtures referred to with the old four
inch maiu below Maunakea street. AS soon
as the expense can be afforded twelve-inch
main will be continued out Palama way,
where the increase of population has already
made the existing line inadequate. One of
the improved MIGRANTS lately imported from
Troy, n. Y, has been placed at the north
west corner of King and Maunakea streets,
being connected With the one foot main
